Dual Functions of Thyroid Hormone Receptors in Vertebrate Development: The Roles of Histone-Modifying Cofactor Complexes
13 Aug 2009
Abstract excerpt
Thyroid hormone (TH) receptor (TR) plays critical roles in vertebrate development. Transcription studies have shown that TR activates or represses TH-inducible genes by recruiting coactivators or corepressors in the presence or absence of TH, respectively. However, the developmental roles of these TR cofactors remain largely unexplored. Frog metamorphosis is totally dependent on TH and mimics the postembryonic...
